Mick Jagger (and James Coburn) star in a new movie called The Man From Elysian Fields. Ebert & Roeper got in a huge argument over it...
Ebert: A rare wit and sophistication... Smart... funny...emotional... Serious... One of the best movies of the year.

Roeper: Implausible... Everything fell apart for me...

Ebert: You have completely lost the point of this movie!

Roeper: I have not lost the point of this movie...!

Ebert: It's a movie! It's a story...!

Roeper: Roger, I'm very aware that it's a movie... It's almost like a Twilight Zone. Or a Red Shoe Diaries, if you will....

The brouhaha ended with Ebert calling Roeper's quibbles about the plot "irrelevant" to other peoples' enjoyment of the film.
